A letter of thanks

“Our family is grateful for your kindness.”

In March last year, Rachel and David’s son, Cole, was diagnosed with acute leukemia – days before the country went into lockdown. Rachel has since sent in a thank you letter for the support her family received.

“Dear Freemasons, I am writing to you to sincerely thank you for your support over the last year. You made a very difficult situation a lot easier.”Read Rachel’s thank you letter

Record-breaking exams

Congratulations to all those who have received their A/AS level, BTec and GCSE results – whatever they may be.
